2015 Honda Fit -vs- 2015 Ford Focus

Right now I'm choosing between these two. Which would be the better pick? Right now, I'm seriously leaning towards a Fit. The reviews are all stellar.
I want something dependable that will last 10+ years easy and gets great gas mileage. An over-sized truck is not on my radar.

Ford vs Honda. That's an easy choice.

I know zilch about cars but the fit looks nice on the interior. I'm just not sure I could deal with something that small. Yes, that is what she said. 
Between the 2, Fit all the way. But I didn't even stay at a Holiday Inn Express.

I just got a Ford Fusion with the 2.0 ecoboost. It's a blast to drive and gets great mpg (30 combined over 3k miles). It's a company car, but has nav and rear camera and they only gave 23k before ttl.
I chose that car over: Accord, camry, corolla, maxima, and whatever kia I was looking at.

Go to Hollingsworth and talk to Matt. He will help you get all the information you want on both. He was honest with my wife and actually told her to buy from the Honda dealership with another salesman because the civic was more fitting to her needs.
You're welcome.

I test drove a Focus (2014) for 1400 miles (rental) and it was great.
It was uneasy at times, but that's how I feel in most cars that aren't my own.
I don't know why, but I'm not sure it would go 10 years, but something I felt. I liked it at the time though and the gas mileage was awesome. Filled up twice from here to Florida, cost just $25 a tank (when it was ~$2something a gallon, so around a 15 gallon tank...and obviously the tank wasn't empty, usually quarter left)

I'd go Honda.

In that case, I strongly suggest you avoid Ford products.
Check out the Corolla, Civic, and Fit.

Wouldn't buy an American made economy car. American companies never cared about their economy cars when I was willing to buy them. I started buying Japanese cars in 1983 and haven't bought anything else since.
Have had a Nissan, a Mazda, Honda's a Toyota. Drove in Dallas in all of them except the Toyota. Always bought them with five speed transmissions so I could pull onto the freeway at a decent speed. Enjoyed driving the 1990 Honda CRX the most, but the 2004 Civic EX I had through 2011 was the second most fun to drive.
Driving a 2012 Camry with an automatic transmission now because I'm retired & no longer live in Dallas.

Focus has the better chassis and will be more fun to drive. I don't know how important that is to you but if I was stuck in an econobox I would want to try and have as much fun as possible.
What if I told you the Focus was developed in Germany? Because the latest Focus was developed in Germany.

What about that new Mazda CX5? They look really nice.
Out of those two, the Honda.

Why not a Fiesta ST? Any car will last 10 years. shite, my Jeep is kickin it at 18 years.
All of the above are too small for me, but if driving a tiny boring car may as well get one that's fun.

My wife has owned an older Focus and now has a 2008 Fit. The Fit is awesome. I was not around for the Focus days but she liked it. Not nearly as much as the Fit though.

I bought a 2015 civic. The fit drives pretty well. Just didn't like the exterior design.
I originally wanted a vw golf tdi but there are two recalls on the golf and the salesman was an a-hole to me and lucky I didn't beat the tar out of him
